@anthonycrystal33 I grew up in the 70's also, and while I don't think Slash is boring, I couldn't agree more that Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and Pete Townsend could play better blindfolded.
That's what she said cuzz slash is't geting any of your mom! insted your mom is geting Fuck in the Ass Hole! by Crazy BUCKETHEAD! and his Chicken threesome!
FUCK SLASH! FUCK YOU! AND IL ENJOY FUCKING YOUR MOM!
@SleepyheadMedia You sir, are retarded. Have you not realized that buckethead just takes bits of other songs, meshes high pitched scales together and then calls it his originals.
who fucking cares.. stop the comparisons.. SLash isnt on eof my favorite guitar players but G N R produced a bunch of good music that Slash definitely held his own on.
You have to remember that the whole point of Slash's live solo spots is to impress kids (mostly guitarists) who like to see their idol prove how much of a guitar god he is, and it obviously works for some. What this isn't is an artistic statement. This is not genius. This is showboating and, like it or not, the likes of Vai are better at it. That said, Slash isn't one of the best guitarists around (IMHO) because of his showboating...
All you Snobs who think Steve Vai is everything because he plays a bunch of scales up and down real fast for 10 minutes at time need to BUTTON it!! theres a reason why guys like Slash get noticed more :)
By far the best modern day guitarist and if you watch the continuation of this solo he goes straight into the Godfather Theme which is just plain beautiful
wanking: YES , bad guitar wanking: NO, great guitar wanking that makes all the other posers discouraged and all the aspiring guitar players inspired: A BIG FUCK YEAH!!
Actually Slash is considered in the guitar world to be one of the Melodic Guitarist, if you listen to all GNR songs. All his solos are melodic, like the guitar is singing.
His solos are not just fast picking, he loves to bend the string. You can memorize his "guitar leads" because they are full of melody.
This video didn't continue, it goes straight to the Godfather Theme (Full of Melody).
@CallyFiasco exactly. It's nice to be fast, but fast isn't everything. Take a look at David Gilmour. He's not too fast at all, but it's awesome the way is lays out his solos. But either way, Slash is great at what he does.
i dissagree sackville30, Slash is awesome nonetheless but in my opinion, i believe that Jimmy Page couldve have done the best job..not putting Slash down at all, love the dude...
put it this way...you know how bad Sweet Child of mine would have SUCKED if it was "Kirk Hamett" who did the solo over it? Slash is the only guitarist out there in myopinion who could have complemented that type of music. Which came along at that time and brought metal to its knees. ALl Kurt Cobain had to do was kick there knees out from under them as they were already half way down before "Nirvana" ever showed up
continually people miss the point. Slash can rip but maybe not as fast or as clean as some Like Steve Vai/Van Halen/Diamond Darrel. Yet the thing that has set him apart from those types of guitarists is that he has sass. The notes he hits. When he hits him and his vibrato it set him apart in a much vaster way then other guitarist who have tried to distinguish themselves. iN a sea of metal soloing drones he came along and said this is me. He was much more raw and stripped down
I know is name i just typed fast .... different style yes but you can't say im wron'g when I say these are bigger guitarist than slash ...im not saying he sux hes great but hes overatted
Slash is an amazing guitarist and her solos in Guns songs are great , he has a lot of spirit but a solo without battery our other instrument companing , and not cleaner is pretty shitty
you're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine. Watch the vid with an honest ear and eye. Keep in mind that Clapton likely wrote the chords since he recorded it-(I know Harrison wrote the song) Prince was playing it just for fun. Could Clapton of played the solo from Purple Rain and have it compare to Prince's version? Maybe, maybe not
Not bad considering prior to coming on stage hes necked a 40oz of bourbon, dusted a few tramlines and levelled out with triple skin doobie:]
